Paul Wright, senior manager of policy and strategy at Boeing, spoke about how the company assumes its leadership role in aeronautics at the GreenBiz 16 event.

He explained why Boeing has targeted biofuels as a cornerstone of their efforts to become carbon neutral. "We actually have biofuel mixing in with the regular fuel today," said Wright. "We want to take that all the way up to full scale, and that will actually give us a 50-80 percent reduction in our footprint."
